World Photo Day: Celebrating 177 Years of Photography

Today is World Photo Day, marking the invention of photography. Here’s to the images that give us new perspectives on the world, bringing us closer together.

Photos do more than just give us an insight and a ‘visual description’ of events from all around the world without having to leave the safety and comfort of our sofa. Photos capture and immortalise our memories forever for us to enjoy over and over again even when our minds start to fail us.

To celebrate World Photo Day, we decided to put together some photos which we love not only because of the memories invoked but because of their beauty too.
